My favorite part of the exhibit: the very last quagga! The mare died on the 12th of august in 1883 in the zoo in Amsterdam, without anyone realising she was an endling. There are only 23 taxidermy specimens of quaggas, and a lot of them aren't on display due to their fragility

This is one of the two taxidermy quaggas in the collection of Naturalis, and has recently been restored

Link to a short video on the instagram page of Naturalis about the restoration, where you can see some of the damage that had to be restored

it's funny how every time a US president gets elected and starts dramatically slashing government spending and privatising everything they all start acting like it's never happened before ever and is a unique and brand new economic policy lol

I think 99% of my advice for healthy relationships is to communicate, especially in advance.

Talk to your loved ones about conflict before you have one. Talk about how you react to conflict and ways you can solve conflict together. If you need to walk away during conflict to gather your thoughts, let them know before you have a conflict so that they can be prepared for the fact that you may need space. If there are certain things that really upset you that typically come up during conflicts, let them know.

Talk to your loved ones about your insecurities before they become a problem. Maybe this means planning a way to communicate that you could use some reassurance. Maybe this means getting a letter from them, or screenshots to read when you need to.

Talk to your loved ones about boundaries. If something they tease you about is actually upsetting, communicate that and let them know. Our loved ones generally want to make our lives better and wouldn’t continue to do stuff if they knew it was hurting you. They don’t know there’s a problem to fix if they aren’t told.

Talk to your loved ones if something is bothering you. Do you feel you always message first or initiate contact? Talk to them about it. Don’t start playing the “I’m not going to message until they do” game. Try not to become passive aggressive or hint at the problem.

Talk to your loved ones about things you like, appreciate or love. Give them the opportunity to do these things for you.

If a loved one is venting to you, ask what they need if they don’t tell you. Ask if they’d like support, or for you to offer validation or advice, or just to listen. This can prevent so much. When we get advice sometimes when we’re upset, we’re not in a place for it and it can make it worse and create conflict.

If a loved one is struggling and you don’t know how to help, don’t just avoid them because you don’t know what to say. Ask them how they’d like support. Sometimes people just want company, a distraction or to know they’re loved. On the other side of this, try to tell your loved ones how they can help. Often they do want to help, they just don’t know help.

I could go on and on about this, but perhaps you get the idea by now.

Our loved ones aren’t mind readers, but sometimes we expect them to be and that isn’t fair to them or us. That usually ends with both you and them being upset. Communicate directly when you can.

I'm of the belief that pink is one of Eggman's favorite colors besides red because

he's very commonly depicted depicted with pink clothing, accessories, and other items, even his mustache, throughout all kinds of media! it looks great on him and matches his cute pink nose 🩷
